Oh my gosh, last week was just a total blur but, it was all good things. Our "nephew" Lucas got a hit at his first baseball game, the first day of our garage sale was really successful (thought day two got rained out) and the MN Food Bloggers Bake Sale for Share Our Strength surpassed its goal.
Now, to make things even better we actually have five days of sun in the forecast! It's been six months since that happened, six months people! At least all the spring rain we've had up until now has sent our perennial garden high gear.
We've turned most of our gardens (that aren't vegetables) into perennials gardens in the last two years. One is filled with a lot of natives and wildflowers and it's such fun to see them come back this year.

Yesterday, we got to take a break from everything going on and head out to the MN Landscape Arboretum to see the yearly tulip display and walk through their wildflower garden.
The Arboretum is such an amazing place. If you live in the Twin Cities area and have never visited, get out there!
